The Optoma H116ST is the all-round most enjoyable sub-£500 projector I’ve tested.

The Optoma H116ST is potentially the answer to a cash-strapped home cinema and/or gaming fan’s prayers. For one thing, it delivers surprisingly good pictures for just £499. In addition, its ultra short-throw lens lets you enjoy 100in images from a throw distance of just over a metre – so your big-screen movie or gaming habit doesn’t have to take over the whole living room.

Optoma has delivered an unexpected treat with the H116ST. Despite costing just £499, it combines an engagingly punchy, well-balanced and clean image with a handy short-throw lens at a price that’s hard to resist.

It has great lumens at 3600 and a superb contrast ratio. You can get up to 100” from just one metre away and for those gamers out there – you are going to be pleased because it has a very low input lag.

Look at these images – they are absolutely stunning. You’re not going to be disappointed if you’ve got this machine. It looks brilliant. Very very bright, very crisp images. Absolutely stunning.

For me the H116ST by far has the more natural colours.

It’s a brilliant brilliant machine. I can highly recommend it.

If you are limited in space and want that short throw then this is something I can definitely recommend.
